"Ply for trade/hire/business" có ply là đón khách -> cụm từ này nghĩa là đợi một chỗ, chạy loanh quanh để đón khách ( người lái taxi, người chèo thuyền,...).

Ví dụ
A former hackney carriage (xe cho thuê) taxi driver from East Lancashire has been fined (phạt tiền) £420 for continuing to ply for hire after having his licence revoked (thu hồi).

The law allows the number of hackney carriages – taxis, which are licensed to ply for hire, as opposed to private hire vehicles – to be capped if councillors are sure there is no significant unmet demand.

PRIVATE HIRE vehicles (or minicabs (xe ô tô cho thuê)) are public transport vehicles. However, a private hire vehicle cannot ply for hire or stand in a rank. It must be pre-booked with a private hire operator e.g. through the operator usually by telephone.
